Blowhole Bound
Donkey Kong attacks some Squidlys at Blowhole Bound.

Squidlys[1] (also pluralized as Squidlies[2]), also known as Squiddles[3] (pluralized as Squiddless[4] or Squiddles[5]), are enemies that appear in Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS remake, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. They are squid-like torpedos that are indefinitely fired from Squid Shots. Squidlys have an electrical variant named Electrasquid.

When fired out from a Squid Shot, Squidlys slowly move in a straight line, either left, right, or both directions (depending on the direction its eyes are facing before it is shot out). Squidlys get destroyed once they hit a wall, or they damage Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong upon contact. The Kongs can defeat a Squidly by jumping on them.

Squidlys seem to have design origins from the orthoceras, a genus of extinct cephalopods with external shells and no feeding tentacles, similar to Squidly.
